VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Join Tyme and Andy as they invite you into their extraordinary mobile home, the Sun Chaser Schoolie, a 35 ft long school bus with a significant 19-inch roof raise. This bus conversion isn't just a means of transportation; it's a fully-functional, cozy living space tailored to their unique needs and tastes.
🚌 Welcome to the Kitchen:
Step into the Sun Chaser's kitchen, a thoughtfully designed area that's one of their favorite spaces. It features a full-size fridge, a propane stove and oven chosen for their culinary passion, and a convenient induction burner for multitasking. Not to forget their beloved beast blender and prized coffee machine, ensuring their mornings start right. Underneath, you'll find a washer and dryer combo, proving that compact living doesn't mean sacrificing essentials.
💡 Storage and More:
The kitchen boasts ample storage, including unfinished upper cabinets (suggestions welcome in the comments!), a deep storage sink, and various cabinets housing pots, pans, and an air fryer. One unique feature is the diesel heater placed strategically under the dry storage.
🍴 Dining and Work Space:
Discover their innovative dining area, with a table that pops out seamlessly, doubling as an entryway desk space. The collapsible captain's chair adds to the area's flexibility, making room for guests or extra activities.
🛋 In Search of the Perfect Couch:
Though currently without a couch, this space in the Sun Chaser Schoolie awaits the perfect find to complete their cozy living area. Meanwhile, a floor fan ensures circulation on hot days.
🖥 Workstation and Tech Hub:
See where the magic happens at their editing desk, from where they manage their weekly vlog and run a media company. The desk also houses their Starlink router, while overhead storage provides additional space.
🌎 From Dream to Reality:
Andy shares his long-held dream of converting a bus, stemming from an inspiration he found at 15. The couple's desire for a mobile yet personalized space led them to create their home on wheels, with Andy's passion for interior design bringing the dream to life.
💤 Cozy Bunk-Style Bedroom:
The bedroom features a queen-sized mattress in a bunk style, creating a cozy yet spacious area for relaxation. A wooden ladder offers easy access to the roof for peaceful morning routines. The room includes extensive clothing storage, a mantle for books, and an EcoFlow Wave 2 air conditioner for comfort.
🚿 Thoughtful Bathroom Design:
At the back of the bus, the bathroom enjoys ample natural light, a priority for the couple. The space includes an 18L hot water tank, towel racks, a full-size shower with brushed concrete and wood plank flooring, and a Dometic 300 Blackwater tank toilet, chosen for its hassle-free maintenance.
🔧 Tips for Bus Life:
The couple shares valuable advice for anyone considering bus life: be flexible, fix things promptly, and embrace the challenges. They stress the importance of having a support network of skilled friends like plumbers and electricians.
💵 Cost-Effective Living:
With an initial bus cost of $5,000 and approximately $20,000 in conversions, their total investment hovers under $30,000. The Sun Chaser Schoolie is not just a living space but also a tool for saving money, despite fluctuating gas prices.
🔋 Power and Utilities:
Discover the bus's unique power setup, including a 200 amp solar battery, a 3,000W inverter, portable power stations, and a 5,000-watt generator. The bus has a 50-gallon freshwater tank and a 40-gallon Blackwater tank, making it self-sufficient for days.
🚪 The Sun Chaser Brand:
The Sun Chaser Schoolie is more than a home; it's a brand. With a strong following on TikTok, Instagram, and RUclips, the couple shares their adventures and runs a media company, Sunchaser Media.
Join Ty and Andy on their incredible journey in the Sun Chaser Schoolie. Follow their adventures, get inspired, and maybe even start planning your mobile home transformation! Follow them on their social media platforms under Sunchaser Media for more updates and insights into their unique lifestyle.

I say this with the utmost of respect and admiration, but I just love when a young couple that appear to have just gotten their drivers licenses to jump in a skoolie as a first car!
😂 IKR! They look 15 maybe 16 😊
@@theroadlesstraveled3993I thought the same thing. They both look 14 to me 😅
@@theroadlesstraveled3993Just think, at 50 they’ll look 30🙂
They’re clearly doing it tho soooo what was the point in ur comment ? Sounds like you’re mad you can’t drive one around to me.
@@babibriiwhat are you responding to?
Wow! Awesome build and impressive young couple. Your bathroom setup is perfect!
Thanks soo much ❤
Cute couple and very nice build! Love how open the kitchen area is. I like the bathroom at the back and the bed layout with the storage and closet underneath. Interesting that the roof raise didn't actually raise the roof over the cockpit, but put it on top making a nice storage area. Even though the fuel and maintenance costs might be as much as a mortgage or rent, it's still cheaper as it allows them to travel and stay in an area for as long as they want. If they had a traditional home, they would have to save money for trips over and above what they are paying for the mortgage and the trips would probably be shorter too. Thanks for the tour!
We had fun giving yall the tour!! Be sure to follow along for our weekly vlogs on our channel! And thanks to tiny home tours for having us! 🏠🚌🌞
We had so much fun touring with you two! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your beautiful home with us! 😊 💖
Hey! Just an idea for that cabinet face. I’d find a wallpaper to stick to it, or if you want to optimize space maybe add an angled wire shelf
@@TinyHomeTours pin the comment bro
@@TinyHomeTours why don’t you pin their comment?
May I ask, how old are you all?
What an impressive, mature, & dynamic duo!
Aww thanks for watching!! Check out our weekly vlogs! 😊
Love the simplicity...no clutter...light colors makes the bus looks like a house!!...design awesome
For the unfinished kitchen cabinet you should get a long closet mirror paint the frame gold and bolt it on its side like a fireplace mirror with a handle in the middle bottom for opening
That’s kinda a cool idea!! We might do that!! Thanks for the suggestion… follow along for our adventures 🥰
Awesome lifestyle! Love the kitchen, the door, the bathroom the whole bus inside & out is very nice! Enjoy & God bless!
Excellent design and craftsmanship! Mega kudos!
Thanks sooo much!
Wow that’s nice 👍
Beautiful place! Winters in NYS are enough to convince many to want to travel, including me 😂
Syracuse native here sending kudos! 🌞
Beautiful build! You organized everything to be greatly sufficient! Bathroom is gorgeous! Safe and happy travels to a great couple!
This is a Beautiful Design Bus 🚌 that this Young Couple did and Loving the layout especially the Kitchen/Bathroom. Saving $ is so important and You Both are learning early in Life, Thanks for Sharing "Happy Easter 🐰" Enjoyed and Blessings 🙏❤️🥰😇 I was born in Upstate,NY and Now live in Pennsylvania,USA
So cool. Y’all did a fantastic job.
Agreed! Huge thanks to Tyme & Andy for sharing their beautiful bus with us!
I don't blame you, go for it. Stick with it no matter wh😮at. If you feel closed in, get a hotel room for the night.
Great idea!
Love how the bathroom is in the back because it is cool
Amazing bus conversion & I live in Schenectady myself. Love the Capital Region!
Oh now way!! We’ll be sure to follow along for more of our adventures!! We’ve filmed a ton in NY
@@tymeandandy I definitely will!
You two had a wonderful experience with your beautiful bus. congratulations
Price is actually impressive!
Too expensive, I just live under the overpass in a tent, total cost was $40
Beautiful bus ❤❤ I really love the bed with drawer and hanging space majorly clever there. Regards to the unfinished kitchen cupboard maybe rattan? Or a nice peel and stick that goes with the colour below ? ❤
Looks very cozy and lots of space… love it!❤️
Just fantastic..love seeing young people (or older) find alternatives to the high cost of rent…very well done. Congratulations on your bus and happy safe travels..
Look at these youngsters doing such cool things!!! I absolutely love it. I have a 16 year old daughter and this is her dream after college. We’re going to do everything possible to make sure she has that dream! We’re already saving up for it…and college…and a potential wedding one day…we’ll be broke forever, but I don’t care. We’re investing our money in our daughter’s future happiness, and there’s no other way I’d prefer to spend my money!!!
I did this too! Like 30 years. 40 foot city bus on 20 acres providing security. Good times. Loved our home, it was amazing! People have to think outside the box these days and back 30 years ago to stay off the rent/mortgage work your life away cycle.
I love the front seats❤where you both can sit together and enjoy each other company.you two have really done amazing!😊
Get some flexible trim molding to hide gaps where the walls meet the ceiling and to cover up other seams. It's rubbery and works well on odd shapes and curves. It'll make everything look more finished. I love your style!
How impressive. Such a young nice, responsible, creative, smart couple! You just don’t see this much in today’s world. Wishing them lots of fun and success in their adventure.
Details on the drivers seat? The folding mechanism and everything is amazing!
Wow!!Your bus built is awesome I love it and very different!!!
Girls like her are rare, hes mad lucky.
Beautiful! That’s the best kitchen I’ve ever seen in a bus I’m in love!!
Extremely organized and neatly arranged
Way to beat the mortgage trap!
yeah i purchased my house 10 years ago and its only tripled in value what a scam
@@nerkle3000 You purchased before a housing crisis set in.
Would you be buying at today's housing prices and interest rates?
I like the bathroom in the back - first skoolie I've seen with that setup; great design!
Love the bus! Lake George here! Great work! Electrician here love to see your setup
You both rock!. Keep going. Sending love all the way from Madrid, Spain ❤
Beautiful design with stunning colors !!!!!
Love it!! Great job 🤗
By looks alone you guys are babies ❤ I love this for yall! Mostly you dnt see young couples doing this or even considering this! Yall are truly special!!
Aww thanks so much I think 😂 we make videos every week! Follow along 🥰
@@tymeandandy I''ll go give you guys a suscription . Love your energy.
That bus is beautiful. Great job.
Smartest couple I’ve seen they have a washer and dryer. They are brilliant.
THEY ARE CUTE AND THE BUS IS CUTE! It’s a vibe! Love it! 🤍🌞🤎
Aww thanks so much!! Be sure to follow along for more of our adventures 🥰
I love the retro appliances. I actually have the same microwave in pink. Even your fan is retro. We had one when I was growing up a lot like it. (70s) The bunk-style bed is a great idea! Then you have nothing overhead to take up space and make it look smaller in there. I think having the bathroom in the back allows for a larger room. I wouldn't go with a black tank for me though. I had a bad experience (much like in the movie RV), but that is personal opinion. Otherwise, your build is very cool.
They’re the cutest!!! I started following their channel last week.
If you’re still looking for suggestions on the cabinet door. I would say glue thin planks of wood like shiplap running horizontal. Have it match the wood in the rest of your build. Stain or waxed wood is pretty to look at while enjoying your morning coffee.
I really like the rear bath roomy nice , and the middle kitchen again smart idea looks spacious.
The front bedroom before driver area nice . But for older folks perhaps a longer flat front bus so the bed won’t need as much height off the floor .
Wishing you both the best.
I really love this especially for a young couple
Nicely done.❤❤❤❤
This a really beautiful build. Your interior design skills are stellar. Also, your housekeeping -- as it's so neat & clean. Glad to see a nice computer work station. You two are very impressive. I doubt that I would have been able to do something like this at your age.
They are age appropriate for this kind of adventurous lifestyle! Bravo!
You think so? Why’s that?
❤ WHAT A BEAUTIFUL JOB U KIDDOS DID WOW . LOVE IT ! ❤
What a beautiful home!
They look 15. 🤪 I love it. We were married young and I’m glad we did!! Nice bus!
Brilliant! *Bravo*
Love your home great designing love the drivers seat
What an epic build I love that you raised the floor and have a hall beyond your kitchen leading to your bedroom and bath area,s Kitchen design is perfect , Love the whole bus its nice and bright whatever works for you I say. If you want a couch it will be in the kitchen though reason I would have put the bed at the back myself and added a window for the bathroom. Still it is cute .
Beautiful build 👑🥰
Beautiful bus and a smart couple!
Thanks so much ❤
For you cabnit a leather or fake leather cover with gold pulls might be nice. Beautiful tour. Thank you
Cute couple and very cool bus build.
Help. So I assume you registered your bus in New York State? How does a full time RVer establish a permanent residence yet lives in their RV wherever?
Registered in VT actually! But we have an address in NY… we’re on the hunt for some new land somewhere in the US tho 👀
No wonder it’s cute and nicely designed. She’s an interior designer!
So cool so young love it! What did they end up doing with dishes etc cabinet?
Awesome all the best 🙏🏽 🌞 👍🏾 👌🏾
Misleading title,
They are living in a bus , because housing has become unaffordable!
No we actually just wanted to travel to find where we wanted to build our house!! 🏠 🥰
@@tymeandandy now that makes a lot of sense, enjoy your travel!
I’m getting old as they look under 18 to me. Awesome place you guys!
Artwork of where you have been on the cabinet door.
i would prioritise bedroom over bathroom, bedroom could also be lounge/living area during the day.
Ya'll got it goin on👏
The bathroom placement is where a lot of major professional RV home manufactures put their bathrooms.
Wrapping the unfinished upper kitchen cabinet door with contact paper would be a nice opportunity to bring pattern to the space for very little money. Perhaps a gold chevron pattern🤔
When I retire, I'm gonna buy a Toyota Van and modify it to be a Camper Van and live in it. I wanna go down south during the cold Winter months, and come back up North when it's actually warm out.
Love the interiors!
Do you know Jesus is a messenger of God
Love your Design 👏👏👏
Really beautiful!
This is another awesome schoolie transformed
into a magnificent home on wheels and as always
i like how the inside looks thanks again for another
awesome tiny house thank you.🇺🇲🚌🚐🚌🚐🇺🇲
Thanks for checking out our bus!! 😊
Paint above the stove cabinet black chalk paint and write both of your names or draw food stuff whatever that would look nice I have the same look in my kitchen btw 🤗
Very cool. Did I hear you correctly when you said you have one 200ah battery and that this even when connected to solar only lasts about a day? If so, that is some significant power draw. I was expecting you to say that the 200ah battery would last you up to a week on solar. I'd recommend investing in more solar panels (in addition to a higher capacity solar charge controller). More battery capacity would of course be great as well, but your rate of recharge is arguably more important. Lastly, you can look at investing in a DC/DC charger, which connects your batteries to your buses starter battery/alternator and willl charge your battery bank while driving. Just some thoughts - keep up the good work.
Wonderful!
Do you know Jesus is a messenger of God
Would be cool to see the driver seat swivel so it can be turned around for an extra seat near the desk
Wow😂very nice
Good god, what a beautiful build!! Amazing job, just subscribed!
First thought was how are two 15year olds building and driving a bus? 🙈 i heard when u get older u think all younger people look super young. How am i in my 30s and already think this way 🤣
😂😂😂 were 21 and 22
Get stickers from all the places you go and use them to cover that cabinet door.
oh..i like this couple
Beautiful!
Do you know Jesus is a messenger of God
Smart kids
Use rattan on the upper cabinet in the kitchen. It will look gorgeous with the color scheme of your bus.
I think you should paint the upper cabinet the same color as your lover cabinets.
Day bed with underneath storage, doubles as a twin bed.
Very nice Tiny home 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊
Thanks you!! We make videos every week!
Really nice! gas can roof very bad.
LOVE ❤
Do buses need more mechanical maintenance? How much more are the costs of that maintenance?
This is really cool and I applaud these young people for making this living area/bus. But at the same time, I am saddened the younger generation cannot achieve home ownership with the same ease as previous generations.
👌👌👌
Your bus is beautifull❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Out of a lot of buses I have seen I like how you did your bathroom the best. Putting that in the back of the bus was a awesome idea.
Bro, I named my build Sunchaser. I'm not finished yet but I guess I have to find a new name.
What if you painted the upper cabinet gold to match the sink?
Upper cabinet: a light colored starry night swirly design, very calm colors, not too bright
Love ❤❤❤❤❤
